Chapter 531: End of the road, the dagger is now
Chapter 531 The road is over, the dagger appears
In order to make this happen, Ding Bancheng spent a lot of money. Whether it was bribing Hangzhou or other important officials, or buying the officers and soldiers who were willing to go to Jiande to destroy the dike, they were all paid by him, a merchant who was known as half a city. As a shrewd businessman, Ding Bancheng consciously recorded the expenses when he paid the money. In addition, because he had another purpose, he was afraid that the adults would throw themselves out to be the scapegoat after the matter was completed, so when Ding Bancheng handed over the silver to them, he also left them with a note. This was also the reason why Zhang Siyuan and the others dared not go against his ideas when he said that the people in Jiande wanted to exchange land for food in a few days ago.
It was precisely because he had evidence of these people doing evil that Feng Keyan thought of using an assassin to kill him. As long as he died, nothing would become a problem, and they would naturally be able to keep the secret. But because of this action, Ding Bancheng, who had been retained, completely turned to Tang Feng, and even brought out the last evidence, which Zhang Siyuan and others had unexpectedly expected.
Seeing the yamen present the account book to Yan Boda, Zhang Siyuan's face became dark, and then the eyes of several people flashed with determination. At this point, they had no way out.
After just casually searching through the account book and the promises written by the officials who were sandwiched in it, Yan Boda's expression became solemn. He looked at Zhang Siyuan and others, and slapped the account book with his hands and said, "The words written on it are very detailed, and there are your autographs on it. Do you have anything else to say?"
Tang Feng coldly swept over the officials: "For your own selfish desires, you have put the people of Jiande in a desperate situation, causing hundreds of innocent people to die in the flood, and the others are all homeless. Will the court's trust in you and the people's dependence on you be rewarded like this?
"If I hadn't happened to intervene in this case, I'm afraid you would have used the innocent Xiong County Magistrate as the scapegoat. And you might have resurfaced and killed the people again. It's really scary. What else do you have to say? If not, please take off your official uniform and surrender!"
"Haha, okay!" Zhang Siyuan stood up and clapped his hands and said, "Mr. Tang is worthy of being a member of the Jinyiwei. He saw through us in a few seconds. When we did such a big thing, we had thought that there would be such a day. Now that you have found out everything, it would be meaningless for us to refuse again. Yes, all of this is what we do!"
"Okay. It's good that you are willing to admit it! You have harmed so many people, wronged their colleagues, and bullied their superiors and subordinates. The crime you committed is extremely great. I don't need to ask the capital for an order. Just this imperial edict can condemn you a death sentence! The person who comes will take them down for me!" At the end, Tang Feng was stern. With an order, several Jinyiwei who was prepared rushed in and wanted to take down all Zhang Siyuan and others.
"Come!" Unexpectedly, before the Jinyiwei rushed to them, Feng Keyan shouted. More than ten yamen runners who had been standing respectfully in the hall suddenly stepped out quickly, stopped in front of them, and confronted the Jinyiwei people. Seeing Tang Feng's slightly surprised look, Feng Keyan smiled proudly and said, "Mr. Tang, this is not a capital city. We have been operating in Zhejiang for so long, how could we not have some of our own confidants? Yesterday, those wastes didn't come, so I knew that things had changed, so half of the people here were confidants arranged by our officials. If you want to take us, it is probably not that simple, right?"
Tang Feng sneered: "It turns out that I have prepared for a long time, but with just a few people, do you really think you can protect you?" As he spoke, the Jinyiwei had already drawn out the embroidered sword and began to force forward. In terms of ability, these ordinary yamen runners in the yamen are naturally not the opponents of the Jinyiwei, let alone the Jinyiwei people have an advantage in terms of number.
"Do you think we only arranged such a group of people?" With Zhang Siyuan's long laugh, there was also a burst of dense footsteps outside the governor's yamen. Hundreds of officers and soldiers with armor-piercing storms rushed to the yard outside the lobby. The first one was Commander Fan. Before he received Feng Keyan's message this morning, he led people to Hangzhou City. At this time, the entire governor's yamen surrounded.
This time, the faces of some other uninformed officials changed. They never thought that the overturning of the case would turn into a meeting with soldiers. They now know everything, and Zhang Siyuan and the others would not spare him, which made these officials suddenly nervous.
"Mr. Fan came just in time. He took down this rebel and executed him. Only in order to ensure peace in Zhejiang forever!" Zhang Siyuan looked at Tang Feng and others proudly, and shouted to the outside.
The officers and soldiers had formed a formation, and with just a command, they could capture and attack the enemies in front of them. Tang Feng seemed a little scared. After looking at the officers and soldiers for a few glances, he said, "You... are you from here? You dare to attack me. What you are getting is an imperial edict. If you do this, you are rebelling..."
"Mr. Tang, don't waste your words. They won't let go. Didn't you just get a headache about how to find the officers and soldiers who broke the Jiande dam? Now they are uninvited. You should know that we have mastered this group of troops, but you forgot about them. So this time you took it upon yourself!" Feng Keyan said to Tang Feng with a sarcastic smile.
Tang Feng turned his head and looked at the officers and soldiers: "Are you really going to make mistakes again and again? In this way, you will have no way to turn around. Killing the imperial envoy is a serious crime to kill the nine clans!"
"As long as you are killed, we will have a chance to save our lives. Once we give up such a good situation, we will be killed! Tang Feng, do you think we will be so stupid?" Zhang Siyuan was also afraid that the officers and soldiers would be moved by Tang Feng's words, so he hurriedly refuted his words: "As soon as you die, no one will spread the secret here. We are still officials from Zhejiang, and they are still soldiers from the garrison in Zhejiang."
This was said very powerfully. The officers and soldiers had no hesitation at all. They raised their weapons and rushed forward. The other officials all looked like earth, and although Yan Boda was as deep as water, they were secretly happy. As long as Tang Feng and others died, these officials would be part of the rebellion. It would be much easier to threaten them to join the White Lotus Sect when the time came.
When the officers and soldiers stepped forward step by step and surrounded Tang Feng and his men in Gai Xin, Tang Feng's expression, which was still a little panicked, suddenly calmed down. He sighed regretfully: "I have given you a chance, but you don't listen, there is nothing you can do! Zhang Tai, take action!"
Zhang Tai, who had been following Tang Feng and was protecting him closely, immediately waved his hand and shot an arrow when he heard this. Amid the whimpering sound, a group of people suddenly appeared on both ends of the street of the Governor's Yamen. It seemed that there were two or three thousand people, and they surrounded the officers and soldiers from Hangzhou.
"This...what is going on?" Even Zhang Siyuan was shocked when he saw so many soldiers from the garrison appeared here. They were thousands of people, and the other accomplices were even more speechless.
"As Feng Keyan said, since I had known that there was a guard officer and soldier under your control, how could it be that there was no defense?" Tang Feng looked at the officials in front of him calmly.
"This is impossible. My Zhejiang officers and soldiers will not be completely unconscious as the censor..." Feng Keyan said in disbelief. But Tang Feng immediately gave the answer, making him speechless: "They are not Zhejiang soldiers, but the soldiers of the garrison stations in Nanjing and Suzhou. I have long been wary of you being anxious."
"Why are you talking to them about this? Brothers, kill me!" Commander Fan could no longer help seeing the situation change suddenly. Although they were surrounded by others now, he firmly believed that with the ability of his subordinates, he could still catch Tang Feng and others in the siege before the people outside defeated him. As long as he took this Tang Feng, he thought that he and others would have a chance to turn defeat into victory. So after giving the order, he took the lead and rushed towards Tang Feng and the others.
The officers and soldiers had no way out at this time. When they saw the commander and the commander went up, they shouted and rushed forward. At the same time, the officers and soldiers outside also surrounded and killed them when they saw this. Suddenly, a governor's yamen became a battlefield, and the sound of killing shocked the people of the entire Hangzhou City that did not dare to go out.
"Kill!" After slashing away a Jinyiwei with one knife, Commander Fan had already rushed straight to Tang Feng. When he wanted to take Tang Feng down in one go, he stood in front of him. It was Zhang Tai. Without thinking, Commander Fan quickly grabbed the opponent's vital points with one knife, but Zhang Tai easily avoided it, and at the same time, the blade flirted with the blade and slashed at Commander Fan's lower abdomen from bottom to top.
When it comes to martial arts, Commander Fan is naturally not Zhang Tai's opponent, but this is not a one-on-one battle after all. Before Zhang Tai's sword touched the other party, several officers and soldiers there had already assassinated him. In desperation, he had to return to the sword to defend himself.
Although Zhang Tai could not hurt the other party's commander, with the protection of him and a group of Jinyi's personal guards, the officers and soldiers who had the advantage in numbers could not help Tang Feng for a while. However, the officers and soldiers outside were already quickly fighting the Hangzhou officers and soldiers who were left behind to defend the dead back step by step. Obviously, Tang Feng and the others had already gained the upper hand at this time...
